Barons Ritter von Zahony, a family of businessmen originating from Hessian but settled in the Austrian
Littoral since the second half of the 18th century, were among the largest landowners in Aquileia between 1850 and 1920. Like many other latifondisti, Julius Ektor (1816–1878), Wilhelm (1820–1885) and Eugen Ritter (1840–1892) conducted archaeological excavations on their properties, sometimes with significant
results as for example in the cases of the Temple of Isis and the alleged Sculptors’ workshop. Based on
the Austrian Cadastre preserved in the State Archives of Gorizia and the Registro delle Acquisizioni in
the Aquileia National Archaeological Museum, the author identifies the sites of their major excavations
between 1862 and 1876, investigates the recovered materials (mainly epigraphical) and proceeds to their exact location through geo-referenced maps based on Friuli-Venezia Giulia’s »Carta Tecnica Reginale« (Regional Technical Map).
